“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Autumn! She took amazing care of our cat Reagan while we were away for a wedding. From the moment we met her, it was clear she truly cares about animals and treats them like her own. Autumn kept us updated with daily photos and little notes about how Reagan was doing, which gave us such peace of mind while we were gone. Reagan can be a bit shy with new people, but she warmed up to Autumn right away—and that says a lot! We came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a clean space, which made the transition back home so smooth. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and clearly experienced with pets, I absolutely recommend Autumn. We’re so grateful for her and will definitely be reaching out again in the future!”
“Sandra is incredible!! Our kittens LOVE her and they’re so well taken care of when she sits for us! She’s very reliable and responsive. She keeps the litters clean and the house free of litter. She’s AMAZING!”
“Reebah took wonderful care of my cat, Garfield. She followed all of my instructions carefully, including giving his medications and his food, and she provided timely updates throughout her visits. I felt completely at ease knowing Garfield was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend Reebah to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, and trustworthy to look after their pets!”
About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need. When I retired from my successful 45 year sales career, I had planned on getting a dog. As it's turned out, my friends and neighbors with dogs have kept me very busy. And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes. We have excellent security with a Neighborhood Watch and private 24 hour Coral Ridge Patrols. Patrolling
About: I have taken care of friends and families fur babies my whole entire life. I’ve always had dogs growing up. We had a few other types of pets like birds, crabs, fish, geckos, chinchillas and also have been around friends and families different types of pets. I have my own fur baby. Even though I do not do overnights I always treat anybody’s little angel that I’m caring for like my own. I will go above and beyond and make sure that you’re a little baby is well taken care of exactly the way you want because my fur baby is my world. I am well accustomed to medical care that senior dogs may require. My family has a 15 year-old Yorkie Shih Tzu who requires medication. I’ve trained my own to the point that he passed his public access test for service animal. I will spam you with pictures and videos of your loved one. I record everything for you as I do for my friends and family. I am a student and I do also work. There are several days throughout the week that I do have some free time to be able to assist in the care of other sweet little babies that may need some help making sure they are ok until you come home. I will be the only one providing care I do not, and will not care for dogs in my own home. I will go to you and your home as it just does not work for my household and also my own baby. I follow a very strict routine with my own boy so any care taking is scheduled around the schedule I have with my boy. I follow whatever instructions are needed for the care of your furry family member so the type of care that I provide depends on what you need. As I stated previously i will be the only caregiver and I will spam you with all the pictures and videos you want of your beloved baby. I do the same for friends and family. It’s good to be reassured that they are ok and I want to help provide that.

About: I used to help my aunt from up north in Boston take care of dogs for 2 years. I did overnight care, and my job was to feed up to 60 dogs all on my own, and administer and medications that were needed. I took care of some NHL players dogs, as my aunts business was a high end service, so I have been taught to give nothing less than excellence. I am currently a flight attendant so on days that I am flying, I will make sure to let the pet owner know. But a lot of the days I am free, I can come by as often as someone would like. I have no problem, making sure that I fit in the owner schedule so that the pet feels as most comfortable as possible. I will follow any and all rules that you provide for me. I will meet with you prior to any care giving provided to make sure that me and your fur baby have a great connection. If you would like to receive photos every time I am with your fur baby, I am more than happy to provide updates in that form.

I love all animals and will protect them with my life!! I am currently working but my hours are flexible and i am in nursing school full time so i am available as much as possible. I can fit your pet into my routine with no problem! I have a fenced yard and a dog at home. I will care for the animals in the clients home but not my own due to my dog not being so well with animals since he was abused very heavily before he came to me. Now he’s a spoiled baby!! I will follow a schedule with no problem and reassure my client with constant communication and understanding that their animal is being 100% loved and cared for.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
we could not be happier with our booking with Jennifer, she cared for our 2 cats like they were her own. the communication was excellent, she provided a summary of her check in along with beautiful pictures every visit. 10/10!!!! highly recommend this sitter!!
Stacey was wonderful with Abby and Roxy during her drop-in visits! She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. Both cats warmed up to her quickly, and it was clear they were well cared for while I was away. I would highly recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Page was excellent! She was super communicative, handled everything like a pro, took AMAZING photos of my boy, and handled my OCD with the litter like we’ve known each other forever! I have literally not had a better experience with anyone on Rover. She stayed extra, loved Loki like her own, and was generally so so amazing. She helped my anxiety with leaving him for so long! Could not have been a better fit. Page is top notch and I will be booking with her for the foreseeable future, even some walks with Loki! Thank you again, Page!!!
We’ve had a wonderful experience with Kayla. She is great with our two cats, including our elderly cat who needs medication, and we feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her care. They clearly enjoy her visits and are relaxed and happy when we get home. We especially appreciate the photos and updates she sends—it really gives us peace of mind to know she’s keeping such a close eye on them. We would absolutely recommend her!
Genesis was an amazing sitter. She loved my kitties like they were her own. Showering them with love, pets, attention, and always kept me updated with lots of photos and videos. She also helped with up-keeping my plants while I was away. I completely recommend her to any cat parent ❤️
I just returned from my trip and I’m hoping I am typing correctly here but I just wanted to say that Ashley was THE PERFECT sitter for my sweet boy cat. I was able to book her at the last minute and she not only came to my rescue but surpassed all my expectations for what one looks for in a cat sitter. She automatically sent me photos & a video, and asked all the right questions to help aid in taking care of Sachi. I couldn’t have been more pleased with her service and I’m hoping to book her in the future. I loved her care & concern to details and to Sachi’s safety. Ashley was awesome.
Tammy was amazing with Foma. She was attentive, patient, and handled his curious, playful personality so well (including his love for treats and getting into everything). She kept a close eye on him, took great pictures, and even brought him toys he loved. We felt completely at ease knowing Foma was in such good hands and would highly recommend her.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
